A fast-growing city that’s attracting a young and dynamic population, Henderson puts size and energy on your side, with a labor force of 170,000 drawn from a population of 2.3 million in the Las Vegas metro area. Skills keep pace, too, thanks to a comprehensive workforce development ecosystem, supported by stakeholders across education, industry, government and development—and all in the nation’s largest county to be ACT® Work Ready-Certified, an assurance of strong basic skills.

The new $12 million Center of Excellence training facility serves as hub for the system, bringing together strategic resources to answer the carefully identified skill needs of local industry. The Center is operated by College of Southern Nevada, the state’s leading institution for workforce development; this deep expertise informs a training protocol that allows workers to acquire skills through stackable certifications and degrees, from basic technician certifications through mechatronics and robotics degrees. A ready curriculum of 2,000 modular hours means Center can quickly customize training for specific operational needs, large or small. Instruction is delivered in state-of-the-art environments that mirror the manufacturing environment with the latest equipment such as a CNC machining room, and with guidance provided by master trainers with extensive sector experience.

The Center enables prospective employees to gain needed credentials for employment, and current workers to upskill with convenience thanks to modular curriculum. Nevada’s LEAP (Learn and Earn Advanced Career Paths), also opens efficient paths for employed workers to gain new skills on the job.
